I have decide to decide come June.. If and when I do decide to have the dream garden I'm going to put out 100 NL plants. Each a yard away from each other. I'm aware if the danger and would like to know a few things. Is it possible for a first time grower to trim the survivors (50 God willing in time before damaging harvest.

I have consider the reality of it being a full time job and carrying water buckets for hours but outside half of the will get ate up or die.

That's a ton of work for just one guy and you don't even know if 50 will survive beginners luck maybe but how do you know there not all gonna get mowed down by deer, rippers or cops. Putting that many plants together is a bad idea. We had 4 guys one year and started with 50 ended up with 3 good plants, it's just that we tried a bunch of unknown strains and manage to find one good one. So I have no idea how NL will do outdoors I suggest you try a few different strains Blueberry by Dutch Passion if you live north or south Dakini Kush by Centennial Seeds if you live south. Best of luck in your career but to produce a middle class income you'll have to put a lot of work in don't think this is gonna be an easy task your talking farming industry.

I think 3x3 spacing is wayyyy tooooooo close! I planted 4 Blueberries around June 10 with a 7 ft spacing and it was too close. Let's say you do get 50 plants...where the fuck you gonna hang them? do you plan to hire a team of trimmers? trimming gets old fast and no way are you gonna trim. 50-200 pounds yourself...I say 50-200 cuz if you don't get a min of a pound per plant...you messed up...and if you never done a grow before, your setting yourself up for disaster...I would do a smaller grow and get your feet wet first...then you know what to expect next time.

I appreciate both of your insight and advice but in my state if they find 1 or 50 carries the same charge. The simpleton work bothers me not. The possibilities of spending 600 dollars and possible a 1000 dollars doesn't bother me neither. Can I successful dry the plants in a grow tent...and I want to do organic. I think I am in a mid life chrisis and need something to check off my bucket list if it

I'd rather take one charge for a nice plant than 50 for shitty ones.

the charge maybe the same if 1 or 50 but a good lawyer could get you out for 1-2 and maybe not for 50

if you have no gardening experience or not much dont grow 50
seems like a damn headache to me, grow 1-3 and than since you have the space grow some veggies just imho

I have amateur knowledge as far as germinating...my problem is pruning..
I'm going to get Vinnie Kaz book and read it over and over. Peat pots eliminates damaging roots.. I think. I know I'm probably aggravating veterans..but please bear with...I'm a 30 yr old adult and have accepted the consequence by advice from others whom have attempted large grows while ruffing it about a mile from the site would be appreciated.

the thing is you posted on an open forum and while you may not want to hear some things we will tell you them anyways
thats what open forums are, they are discussions.
You asked our opinions you'll get them, regardless of being 30 or not lol

3 outdoor plants are definitely defensible as personal use. That's what I grew this year and have 1.4 lbs of dries and cured off 2. Was letting the 3rd run her legs off in a greenhouse but discovered mold last night. She us hung and about 1/2 what her total weight would've been.

Sounds to me like you might cross prison off your bucket list too, as 50 - 100 plants are much easier to spot, nevermind the same charges being filed 1 vs 50 plants, 50 makes getting caught much more likely.

Being a beginner myself and being around the time to sex my plants. My first thought is how is a beginner gonna wade thru 100 plants and find and pull out all the males before pollination? unless your using all fem seeds.

BTW that opening line "I have decide to decide come June.. If and when I do decide to have the dream garden". you should run for office, sound like a politician.

its is unlikely you will be able to manage 50 plants ,
people often jump into marijuana growing, without ever caring for something as simple as a house plant or cactus before

start small , dream for a brighter bigger future

because if those 49 plants dont work out, youll have wasted a shit ton of money and invested time
and as PP's have said 50 plants are easy to spot, and just because the charge is the same doesnt mean what you will actually get is the same
